One more thing.. Wouldn't it be way better to get the IMDB info on demand instead? The time it takes to show the directory ends up being way too long since it is fetching everything. I know caching happens such that the next time it will be fast, but it will be quite slow, for example if you return a few hours later and there are 50 new items.

I think it may make more sense to fetch imdb info on demand instead.

In the newest versions of the plugin (internally), the images are fetched on-demand. I believe Kricker has been working on switching the cache dir over to /addon_data/, though I'm not sure if it fixes the thumbnail problem.. strangely enough, thumbnails work fine for me in both OSX and Win 7.

What about imdb info itself? Will that be fetched on demand too?

That would be great!

Yes, I was working on switching the cache folder but it was getting confusing. I was doing some tests and the folder was not even being created. There are changes to how all this is being done in our trunk builds. I wanted to get out the last version with the language additions and WOL ability. Hopefully we can get another version out before long with the on demand fetching.

I'm toying with the idea of a language setting for nzbmatrix feeds. I think it supports more than just an English filter. I also really would like to read the custom feeds from a separate file so they will not get wiped on updates to the addon.

just wondering does this script rename the nzb or rename the sabnzbd download name to correct imdb name?


- kricker - 2010-08-08 00:19

This only adds the nzb to SABnzbd+. All renaming should be done in SABnzbd+.


- EMK0 - 2010-08-08 03:44

is it possible to send the imdb name using the sabnzbd api? its mostly because im not the only one who would use this script and if someone else use's it they wouldn't know how to/ want to go to sabnzbd+ to rename it correctly.

The major issue with this is that sometimes the IMDB result isn't reliable. Because not all RSS feeds include IMDB links, the current method is to take the file name and do a google search for "movie name + site:imdb.com" and grab the first result. About 80% of the time, this works perfectly. Another 10% it doesn't find anything and 10% it gets the wrong movie. So, automatically renaming based on the IMDB name could cause issues if it renames it to the wrong movie.

If you're using SABnzbd+, hopefully you at least scanned the guide. That's pretty much all I did at first and renames were quite easy to setup. Check out the sorting options in the config of SABnzbd+.

Just had a message saying there was an update to this add on so I updated it and now I can't anything to the queue.

I get a message in SABnzbd saying
Quote:(cause= "Problem accessing nzbmatrix server (error:invalid_login)")

I have checked the API details and they are correct, refreshed the key and updated it but it still refuses to successfully add it to the queue.

Not sure if it is related to the update or if it is something NZBMatrix have done as I see they have been updating their API to APIv1.1

Nice touch on adding English Only to the config screen for NZBMatrix - Thanks!!!

Is it just nzbmatrix you can't add or any of the others as well?
